laws and regulations
unavailability of key resources
existing companies with significant
economies of scale
• competitor reactions
threat of substitutes
• the pricing of substitute products

bargaining power of buyers
customers (buyers) are powerful when:
• there are few large buyers in the marketplace
• products are commoditised or standardised
• the company is not a key supplier from the
customer’s perspective
bargaining power of suppliers
suppliers are powerful when:
• there are few alternative sources of supply
• suppliers could integrate along the supply chain
and so become competitors
• there are high switching costs
• the company’s business is not key to the supplier
inter‐rivalry of competitors
the intensity of rivalry may depend on:
•
•
•
•
•
•
number of competitors
cost structure
differential advantages of products/brands
switching costs
competitors’ strategic objectives
exit barriers
a good business mission
